Destined for greatness.

The new RS770 Disc Wheelset from Shimano takes their commitment to innovative performance to the next level, designing a streamlined, efficient wheel to meet the demands of modern road cyclists. This wheelset features a differential-height carbon laminated alloy rim â€“ 24mm in front and 28mm in rear â€“ designed to provide efficient acceleration and responsive handling. Measuring at only 20.8mm wide, it might not be the widest road wheelset on the market, but with its inclusion of tubeless technology it certainly can hold it's own out on the road. By using a carbon laminate, Shimano greatly increases the strength and stiffness of the rim with negligible impact to the wheelset's overall weight. Down below, 24 front and rear spokes lace down to Shimano's durable Center Lock-compatible alloy hubs, which are easily serviceable should the need ever arise.

Reviews

I wanted a solid wheelset mainly for training/every day rides that didn't cost several figures ($$$$) but also good enough for a race if required. Right out the box wheels looked amazing, definitely more alloy than carbon but carbon layup gives a nice aesthetic touch. Designed for gravel but can easily tick other boxes. I am a heavy guy but they feel strong while sprinting and fast rolling all around. After my disappointment with Mavic Elite Disc, this came to fill the job. Hub is solid with fast engagement and classic Shimano heritage.

Overall rugged but due to disc brake set up, wish they were lighter weight

There is a lot to like here. I wish they didn't even try to claim to be carbon because they look it, but are not, and the weight is not either. Disc brake wheel sets are heavy and anything you can do to lower that weight is a plus. IT can be done, but you will pay a lot for that. These wheels are a good mid ground with a very decent price.

Replaced the stock Bontrager Tubeless ready wheels on my Trek FXS6 with these carbon clad wheels. They are aero but will take a lot of punishment. They look great. They are also much lighter and feel really good!
